[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family have had good experiences with VYS at the younger travel ages recently; less good at the U12/U13 range several years ago, although I know coaches and staff have mostly changed since then, so it seems to be that VYS is better than it might have been in the past. I do think it's disappointing (and sharp practice) for clubs to stagger their tryout/offer/acceptance periods rather than agree to a more coordinated approach that would provide players with the opportunity to tryout with multiple clubs, talk with multiple coaches, see what spots they are offered, and choose the club that's best for them. For example, VYS has tryouts tonight, and will be sending out offers shortly thereafter asking parents to respond within 48 hours. Some other nearby clubs haven't even held tryouts yet. One has to assume that these clubs know exactly what they're doing to parents when they create these tryout schedules.[/quote] If you have other tryouts scheduled just tell them that, and let them know when you will respond.[/quote] Haaaaa...tried that. They stuck to their guns of 48 hours. After the FIRST of TWO tryouts. In other words, they weren't even willing to wait until tryouts were over. THIS is how you lose families.[/quote] You don't know whether they stuck to their guns - they just repeated their position but you haven't called their bluff yet. Ignore what they say and just let them know when you will tell them your decision. My money says the spot will still be there if you still want it.[/quote]
